RMI 2302 EXAM 3 WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONS A+ GRADED
3 phases of Demographic transition - ANSWER •Pre-transition: high birth & death rates
=> population maintenance (most of human history)
•Transition: low death rates and high birth rates => population explosion (1700-2000)
•Post-Transition (developed nations): low death rates and birth rates => population
maintenance
*pre and post transition both has to do with population maintenance
FROM THE SENDAI FRAMEWORK PPT 4. Describe the factors that explain why disaster
risk is not evenly distributed (slide 6) - ANSWER -Biggest exposure
•Small island developing states (SIDS) & land locked developing countries (LLDC)
•Potential losses relative to wealth/development/GDP
carry capacity - ANSWER •The ability of the environment to support a population
Disaster Risk Drivers (7) - ANSWER -Poor urban governance
-Vulnerable rural livelihoods
-Declining ecosystems
-Global climate change
Why are poor nations worse off? (8) - ANSWER -Less resilient
-No insurance/social coverage
-Lead to income & consumption shortfalls (which they can't afford)
-Negatively affect welfare and human development (where they are already behind)
•Explain the expected outcomes (11) - ANSWER 1.Substantially reduce global disaster
, mortality by 2030
2.Substantially reduce the number of affected people by 2030
3.Reduce direct disaster economic loss (relative to GDP) by 2030
4.Reduce damage to critical infrastructure/basic services
5.Increase the # of countries with disaster reduction strategies
6.Increase international cooperation
7.Increase/improve multi-hazard early warning systems
•Describe the priorities for action (12) - ANSWER Priority 1: Understanding disaster risk
Priority 2:Strengthening disaster risk governance to manage disaster risk
Priority 3:investing in disaster risk reduction for resilience
Priority 4:Enhancing disaster preparedness for effective response and to "Build Back
Better" in recovery, rehabilitation, and reconstruction
MODULE 13 LO - ANSWER 1. Describe global aging trends
2. Categorize the challenges of aging
3. Explain the 5 specific challenges of an aging population
1. Describe global aging trends (Slide 5) - ANSWER 1.Aging population - people 65 and
over outnumber those 5 and under
2.Life expectancy is increasing (lifespan?)
